Shaw, Adams Morgan Starbucks May Get Booze Next Week

Beer and wine could arrive at Starbucks locations in Adams Morgan and Shaw as soon as next week, a representative of the coffee chain told Borderstan.

The Seattle-based coffee purveyor is targeting the week of April 11 to roll out its “Starbucks Evenings” service with alcohol and small plates at its 1801 Columbia Road and 815 O St. NW stores.

In addition to the shareable snacks, the program will feature “craft beer,” along with red, white and sparkling wines by the bottle and glass, according to a sample menu.

But food and drinks vary by region, meaning it’s possible the stores could serve local beer and wine. Small plate possibilities include truffle mac and cheese, bacon-wrapped dates, chicken skewers and truffle popcorn.
